GeekSugar mentions on their website that there is a large possibility that the iMac will get a processor speed bump PLUS an increase in hard drive space across all iMac models.  This is extremely good news!  The iMacs has been very popular these past few months with all its current specifications.  Feature boosting it further will surely give the 1-2-3 K.O. punch, making the A+ grade like the previous feature boosts of the Macbooks. While it doesn't sound to be a huge overhaul (the upgrade to Penryn processors like the Macbook & Macbook Pro), it still is a welcome surprise to those who'd be getting their Moms a surprise for the coming Mother's Day.  Yeah, I ...

As I write this, I'm running Windows on my laptop, here at the dinner table. It's been almost a year since I worked on Windows, meaning actually running it for a few hours and doing real work with it. With my computers usually running some flavor of Linux or Mac OS X, Windows has mostly only been run only in those rare instances I need to run Windows-specific software. My most recent acquisitions, being an Asus Eee (running on Linux) and a Mac desktop, have brought me farther away from Windows, I was almost tempted to wipe it out from my laptop. And yet here I am. I've booted up good ol' Windows XP because my wife wanted to ...

I interrupt Christmas cheer with a classic DummyGeekGurl gripe. The other week, I had accepted a firmware upgrade alert from Apple Inc. I had upgraded my firmware successfully, and I was fascinated by how it’s done. When the computer shuts down and restarts after the other software upgrades, instructions would greet you upon startup on how to perform the firmware upgrade. You restart (or was it shut down?) your computer again, then long-press the power button till the “sleep” indicator light (the one near the infrared receptor/port/whatever on the right side, where a floppy or a CD drive usually is on other computers) blinks repeatedly, or a beeping sound is elicited. Then the computer will just upgrade itself. When you boot up again, voila! You have upgraded your system.

I am still very much hung up on tiny laptops, and I guess I will never get over them. But while I have bubbled on and on about the three biggest newsmakers of this year, the eeePC, the OLPC and the Intel Classmate, let me get back to the mainstream market, and give you... My gurly tech salivations. It’s about time I actually wrote on gurly geekiness, because I seem to have written on everything else but gadgets that gurls love. I’m not DummyGeekGURL if I didn’t love pink too much, right?

It's gift-giving season, everyone, but before I bombard you with my personal salivation picks, let me start December with a salivation trip with a twist: materialism married with charitable intentions on a grand scale.

Time for some mod love, geeks and geekettes! Last week, I had talked about a friend’s boyfriend’s tricked-out desktop. See what other modding aficionados have come up with:

Speaking of geeks and salivation, I had come across a picture of my friend’s boyfriend’s computer setup months ago, but the writing of the article itself was put off after mounds of work, mounds of lifestyle stresses, and moving houses, rooms, and what-not galore. So here it is, for all the world to see, my friend’s boyfriend’s PC setup.

I actually thought that this looked so much like an alienoid thing, but I was more fascinated than weirded-out in a girly way. Though I could not relate to his and my friend’s glee at his boyfriend’s having “Reached the CPU and vid card temp that he's been targetting. So it rocks!” I sure could relate to the fact that this thing does look cool, and I do appreciate a great-looking tricked-out, pimped-out thing any time.

There are days when I just wish I were Bill Gates’ (rather, Steve Jobs’) daughter. With a tricked-out setup like his, I would so be beside myself, that if I were married, I won’t be paying hubby any attention because of being absorbed in my system.

When I first saw Bill Gates’s setup on CNN Money, I chuckled to myself because I was so amused how he could need three displays just to check mail. It was only until I had experienced and realized the need to work on two computers at once that I finally reconciled myself to the fact that multiple displays have more than salivation factors. They actually bring a productivity boost that is unparalleled.

While I was shuffling around in Sayuri to reorganize my files and make room for new articles to be written, I came across this old one. Written last September 14, 2007, I cannot believe how absent-minded I was. Well at least this would save me time from having to whip up another one. :p Seriously, writing for SplashPress is more of therapy and sanity-salvation nowadays. Well, enough pre-article banter. Read on for my experience with and addiction to... Two computers. :p

First person shooter gamers try to immerse themselves into the game as much as possible in order to really feel that they are actual participants in the virtual space. The development of surround sound is a big help to gamers because it made the simulation of the artificial environment on the real environment quiet easy. One would hear what is happening in the 3D space on the real world and it really made gamers feel that they are that character that they are playing. Now you can add the 3rsd Space FPS Vests from TN Games to your list of immersive accessories. This new gizmo was designed by an actual doctor and the is made ...
